Research on opening architectural tours in Da Lat

Many experts believe that, since its inception, Dalat has been an ecological resort city, with a European urban spatial structure, an architectural art style combined with landscape, respecting the beauty of nature to the maximum, architecture is a part of nature.

Each architectural work and cluster of architectural works here is cleverly constructed, on the one hand fully exploiting the topography of Da Lat, on the other hand enhancing the beauty of the natural landscape.

This place is preserving about 2,500 architectural works with European architectural style; these architectural heritages are the soul and backbone of the heritage city of Da Lat. Therefore, the French architectural fund in Da Lat is a human resource to develop typical tours .

A tour guide who specializes in organizing tours for international tourists when traveling to Da Lat shared: In fact, many foreign tourists have mentioned the need to experience Da Lat architectural tours. However, the level of foreign tourists accessing this typical tour is still quite modest compared to the actual demand.

He also said that the limitation is not because Da Lat lacks architectural resources, the cause lies in other subjective and objective factors such as the openness of architectural works is not really enough to build specialized tours, lack of in-depth documents to present to foreign tourists who are academics, lack of supplementary services to increase the attractiveness of architectural tours...

Talking about why Da Lat has not yet formed tours to experience architectural works from the French period, many people think that: Most of the architectural heritages from the French period are currently the headquarters of state agencies or owned by a business organization, so visitors are more or less limited. In addition, some architectural works in the architectural heritage fund from the French period are now degraded, affecting the design of discovery tours. In addition, the lack of guides with in-depth knowledge of architecture is also a barrier to building architectural tours. Because having beautiful ingredients does not mean the dish will be delicious, if you do not know how to prepare it. Only a good tour guide can bring interesting stories to visitors based on the existing architectural human resources of Da Lat.

Experts also believe that we can completely awaken the architectural heritage of Da Lat through artistic activities in the space of those heritages. The architectural heritages in Da Lat themselves must have a separate gallery about the history of that heritage, in addition to expanding the scope of interaction with new art forms.

Thus, the architectural heritage of Da Lat can truly contribute to the local cultural industry. To do that, the pioneering role of the State must go first, then professional tourism companies will conduct surveys on the actual needs of tourists to design tours, routes, destinations... plus the support of artists and art activists, the construction of architectural tours is certainly feasible.
